5th Grade Weekly Update
April 28 - May 2
Chromebook Care
Our students are not caring for the Chromebook properly. Please take a brief moment to review the care of the Chromebook. We are running out of loaners. Because of the expense of the fees being assessed, parents cannot pay for it.
Things You Really Shouldn't Do
- Never give your username and password to anyone else...and students shouldn't loan out their devices to others.
- Try to always use your device on a hard, flat surface. Laying your device down on a soft surface (your bed, a blanket or pillow, or a couch) can cause the device to overheat and break!
- Don't eat or drink near your device! You'll be responsible for the damage if an accident happens...and we wouldn't want that!
- Don't try to go around the Burleson ISD filters, it's not allowed and you can lose your device if you do.
- Don't lay anything on the keyboard - you may forget it's there and shut the lid...this could crack the screen.
- Watch out for your cord! Don't lose it, run over it, let the dog chew on it...you're going to need that power!
- Be careful how you carry your device. Two hands is always the best way! If it's in your backpack, make sure you don't throw your backpack around or sit on it! Crunch!!!!
